THere" were-found Jp_ be two laws under which the kidnapping' charges might hold. Labor men were said to expect at least to handicap the prosecution. J. A. G. Bradorf of New York, representing the Erectors' Association, also...was arrested in Indianapolis on the kidnapping" charge District-Attorney Fredericks bf"~l"ob- Angeles wired that while the law was relentlessly pursuing suspects, the country could expect a fair "American jury" trial. New York unions are ready to raise a $200,000 defense fund for the accused men. Union labor throughout the country may be called on to contribute. Two Congressional inquiries into the alleged "third-degree" methods of procuring McManigle's confession were said to be likely. RESUME WORK ON STEEL PLANT Birmingham ' Enterprise Halted a.week Ago Will Go On. Birmingham, Ala. The erection of the new plant of the American Steel and Wire Company at Cory was resumed after a week's shutdown. Four hundred of the 600 men went back-to work. The order came from the principal headquarters of the big concern just as suddenly as did those of a week ago ordering all the work stopped. The plant will cost $4,000,000 when completed.

A new "real Boston" bill, providing for the use of "MetropoH tan Boston" as referring tn and towns within the '.metropolitan district, but abandoning the' original scheme for a council,,was reported to the Legislature by the Metropoli- _tan_affalrs._committee. - There is no provision in the bill for any governmental function... \ TWEES. FROM Farm manure is valuable. Plant gome fall forage crops. The nest egg theory is out of date., - A hen" will lay if she Is properly fed and housed. It is best not to wash eggs that are to be used for hatching. Many poultry keepers do not give their birds exercise enough. Rape makes very good pasture for either young chickens or laying hens. Experience teaches that the best hatching eggs are those of medium shape. The sitting hen must have her daily care and attention, just like the Incubator. Poultry farming, In connection with sheep, is largely followed in parts of New England. Trees should be pruned when they are first.transplanted. This is is the most ideal time to start the pruning. There are two methods for getting good cows: by buying them, or by buying good sires and building up the grade herd. Onions and peas are among the first seeds to sow in the spring. The' plants will endure some frosty weather. In choosing a breed of sheep, it matters little which is chosen so long as it is a good wool and mutton pro-' ducing quality. After the hens become broody on their laying nests they may be gently amtquietly -changed at night to the sitting quarters.. ~~~ / In that new poultry-house have the perches on a level and about a foot above the dropping board. Don't forget the dropping board. Prune to prevent the lower limbs from hindering cultivation; the upper ones from growing out of easy reach for spraying and picking. Be sure that the turkeys have enough, but not too much food during the breeding season just enough to keep them in good flesh. Wash Incubator trays -In good hot water with plenty of the old-fashioned hard yellow soap. Dry In the sun. Do this after each hatch 1B oft. The hen that grew from the Incubator chicken will want to sit as badly as the one that grew from the chicken hatched In the old-fashioned way. " \< It Is useless to plant beans until the ground becomes warm. If they come up and then are chilled, they turn yellow and never amount to anything. The brood sow, like all other animals, requires sufficient food to maintain her own body in a thrifty condition, while yet supplying the needs of the unborn litter. There used to be a mania and It ctill has a hold In soine sections-r-for farmers to increase their farm possessions in spite of their Inability to properly use the same. Farming Is not a calling In which "main strength and awkwardness" are factors. It is not an Industry that affords a large aggregate crop by halfcultivating a large acreage. The fertility of eggs depends chiefly on the condition of the breeding stock, the number'of. females alloted to one male, the conditions under which they are kept and the food. Don't sell that old ewe merely hecause she is thin. Look at her teeth. If they are good she is probably a leany suckler and a money-maker. Give her a little grain and watch her a llttla Poultry manure ferments very quickly and as frequently handled loses much of Its nitrogen In the form of compounds of ammonia whiph are rapidly formed and which escape Into the air unless means to prevent are taken. The American -Ply: mouth Rocks, \Yyandottes and Rhode 'sland, Reds, can be made good broiler chickens at 2 to 4 pounds a pair, roasting chickens at four to six lounds each andrgood large plump 'owls at one year old. Let the best mother jien rates th«brood. The nervous horse should have less oats and more bran. A- good hen -will easily care for from fifteen to thirty chicks. This Is about the time to plant on* prune, spray,, plow and fertilize. A little charcoal ib fine to give at any time of the year for all hogs. ' Feeding the Jlogs at regular hours Is worth trying. Th'ey know when -it comes..,-. To prevent contagion, a sick fowl should he at once separated from the others. Regulate the amount and kind of feed In accordance with the condition of the hog.. Don't put the new bed "on sod land. The' white grub Is death to strawberry plants. Glean sand or good country pin sawdust is excellent to use on floor of poultry houses. Do not plant beans until all danger of frost is passed, as the young plants are extremely tender. At 15 cents each day-old chicks are cheaper than eggs for- hatching at two dollars per sitting. The poultry - business large and' small Is made successful through attention to the small things. The turkey, hen that ranges far from the barns is likely to steal her nest a long ways from hoine. If there are tw[o toms in the flock and they don't agree, shut up on one day and the other the next. Be sure to have brood coops and brooders ready and waiting for tha chicks when hatching time comes. In some places the mutton sheep are the more profitable, while In other places it pays better to produce wool. Cleanliness and plenty of fresh air are great helps in developing the chicks and keeping them thriving and propering." Don't look for fertile eggs if yott crowd your hens.too close. Another bad_ thing in the same line is lack of exercise. If you have only one breed of pur blooded birds you will sell many eggs for hatching and birds for breeding, at high prices. A field of~fo~ur-or-flve_ncres will be large enough to run a flock~b"f~100> sheep for-about thirty days and furnish some hay besides. " - According to a successful dairyman, the presence of dirt In milk Indicates careless and uncleanly methods io production and handling. Now that the days are warmer, b» sure to keep the Incubator cellar well aired and do not run the machines with too high a lamp flame. In transplanting cabbages set the> plants in the ground up to the first leaf, no matter how long the. stem Is, and press the* earth firmly about It If brood hens with chicks are glvett good care they will usually begin lay- Ing early and continue to lay for several weeks before they wean ttielr brood.... The would-be poultryman should tf& careful in his selection of a farm, for upon this selection may depend his success or failure in the pounltry business. For those who have not much timete devote to the garden there is no" class of flowering plact^ more desirable than the hardy perennials and herbaceous plants. There Is considerable easily earned money In rearing pigeons. In largecities?3.50 to $3.75 a dozen pair la paid for them. The demand Is alwaysgreater than the supply. Farmers who have heavy draft mares are making a great mistake itt not raising more colts of this class, and keeping the money at home that Is now going west for horses. Obviously the remedy for unproductive eggs is to use only healthy breeding stock and to keep the breeders In good- condition by good food and good common sense care and management. If you have a piece of land *^at must be planted to corn later"'than the last of May, use seed of somegood early maturing variety of corn. Learning ftsxty Day corn is good for late planting.

3 HE American tourist who flits rapidly and carelessly across the continent of. Europe, looks upon the canals of the countries he passes through as' being in the main mere pictur^ esque features that add to the Interest of the landscape, but have been rendered practically obsolete in a commercial sense by the building of railways. He sees barges upon them, to be sure, and in winter be is delljfhted by the sight of the people of Holland skating along the tcosen water courses. But ho would "be.astonished if he knew the Important part the canals and canalized.rivers, play in the economic life of European nations. Canals, as they were originally constructed, cannot compete with railroads, but as the latter have spread over tho land, the waterways have teen altered to meet the new conditions. Their chief mission In these days Is to connect the.centers of populatibn-and Industry with the coasts to mako them seaports and this has been accomplished to an extent that is surprising to the uninformed: The pressure of international competition is mainly responsible for the extensive improvement of waterways In the continental European countries that have the highest degree of Industrial development. Every manufacturing country, district or city, if it Is to prosper, must be able to meet this " competition and to assemble materials as cheaply as possible from all parts of tho world, and be provided with facilities for placing its goods cheaply and readily upon the chief domestic and foreign markets. The countries of the continent, recognizing this, have adopted the policy of providing with e'<rnal-care_for_the development of both railroads and waterways.-.in Great Britain, on ths contrary, with the~~e"xception of two canals in Scotland, the Inland waterways, both rivers and canals, have been improved and are operated by' corporations. The British government is considering the advlsabllty of changing its policy toward waterways. Of all the continental countries, France has spent the most on canal navigation. Her extensive plans for waterway development, adopted In 1879, provided for a -system by which tho waterways should be all connected with each other, and with the chief centers of population arid industry. They are mainly owned or controlled t>y the state, but when in 1903 a law was passed providing for the construction of new waterways, it stipulated that the beneficiary parties or locall- ties must advance at least half of the total cost. The interests making this contribution ave permitted to recoup themselves from tolls or dues, and from a monopoly of providing towage or tractron. Three canals, one from Cette to the Rhone, one from Marseilles to tho Rhone, and one from the coal fields to the Olse river the Canal du. Nord are now being constructed under these" conditions. The most Important of the commercial waterways of France is the Seine river, and there la an Immense traffic upon it between Havre and Rouen and IParls. At large expense it has been canalized and provided with locks and lateral canals, while other, canals connect the river through its'tributaries rwith the Loire, the Rhone, the Rhine, the Meuse and the Scheldt Another elaborate system of main and lateral canals that carries a vast tonnage to Paris connects the capital with Dunkirk and Gravelines. and between Paris and the Belgian and German frontiers there Is a perfect network of waterways. The western and southern parts of the country are nearly as well provided with canals. The Caijal du Midi, which, running from Bordeaux to Cette, connects the Bay of Biscay with the ' Mediterranean, enables the former city to supply the iwhole of southern France with the' products of foreign lands, and of the IFrench colonies which It Imports. In connection with this Canal du Midi, the French government has long under consideration a most interesting iand Important project nothing less rthan to convert tho waterway Into a. iship canal by which sea-going vessels land the warships of France om. the Atlantic to the Medlerranean without being exposed to.jie, violent storms of.the peninsular coast and without passing through the ibtraits of Gibraltar.', The people o - -"France-never-lose -sight -of-the possl- Iblllty of war with Great Britain, and this ship-canal plan appeals to them especially because it would rellev< their navy from the necessity o Bteamlng under the thousand, guns that arm King George's tremendous fortress on the rock. So the project seems almost equally important from' a commercial and a military view, and doubtless will be carried out. Altogether, France has nearly 3,000 miles of canals and 5,000 miles of navigable rivers, and in the last 25 years the rate of Increase as regards tonnage and ton-mileage has been more rapid on the waterways than on the railways. In the Rhine and the Elbe, Germany possesses two commercial waterways of the first magnitude.' The Rhine is navigable for small river steamboats as far as Basel, just across the Swiss frontier, and small sea-going steamers ascend It as far as Mannheim. This J mighty river has been Improved by the Germans at a cost of more than $12,500,000, and its waters bear an immense traffic In coal, iron ore, iron and steel manufactures and other heavy freight. The Rhine valley, dotted with picturesque ruined castles and saturated with legend and romance, is also "one of the busiest districts in-all Europe; for It is densely populated and contains numerous important industrial cities. Canals connect the Rhine with the Meuse, Saone, Seine, Danube and Ems rivers. The Rhine-Rhone canal follows the course of the river from Strassburg almost to Basel, and is generally used instead of the river. The Elbe Is fcecond only to the Rhine in commercial- Importance. It Is navigable throughout its whole course In Germany and along It He some of the chief silver and coal mines, salt fields, sheep pastures and beet-root areas In the empire. Moreover, It links Berlin, the capital, with Hamburg, the chief port, by the canals of the Havel and Spree river systems. The Weser, the Oder, the Vistula and other rivers are of great importance as commercial highways, and go to 1 make up Germany's grand total of nearly 6,000 miles of navigable rivers, of which about 1,400 miles are canalized. Germany's canals are many, their total mileage being something like 1,500, and large sums are spent on jthelr Improvement. The most Import ant'internationally is the great North Sea and Baltic ship canal, which traverses Schleswlg-Hotatei'n, saving two days' time by steamer between Hamburg and all the Baltic ports of Geral ; wao begun In 1887 and was opened to traffic In 1895, and is a souroe of much pride to Emperor William. The Ludwlgs canal In Bavaria united the Danube witli the Main, thus,.supplying a continuous waterway from the North sea to the Black sea. The Plauen canal connects the Elbe with the Havel, and there are systems connecting the Oder with the Elbe and the Memel with the PregeL Of?& ~<552tta.C A waterway expert has said that there are too many small craft on the German canals to keep the- cost of transportation down as low as it might be, but the government's charges for lockage are-smail-so-thatrtates" "are"" very" reasonable and the total of h'eavy traffic is_ large. Through close and effective study of economical transportation, Belgium has built up an excellent system of canals and canalized rivers, 29 in number. These are used partly for transportation and partly for irrigation. Both the Misuse and the Scheldt are navigable throughout their entire length in Belgium, and many of their tributaries have been canalized. In addition to these natural advantages, there are canal -systems that unite Brussels and Louvain with the Rupel, "Brussels with "Charleroi and Mons with Conde. Then, too, there aro two fine ship canls which by uniting Ghent and Bruges with the sea coast liave restored to those cities much of their old time commercial Importance.

I sometimes despair for the future of the human race when I see some poor man or poor woman trying to "lentil cutlet," with two bananas for dinner! And after this desperate plunge into the flesh pots of Egypt he would always feel as guilty as if he had just robbed a safe and could hear tho police coming to tako him in.

They cross and interlace one another like the threads of some large fishing net. The North Holland canal v.as considered, until recently, to be the finest of the kind in Europe. The southern part of the country is especially favored by nature, for the Rhine, entering Holland, divides up into "numerous arms," "the chief of which aro the Waal, the Lek and the Yssel. The Meuse joins the Waal, thus ming'ing its waters with those of tire Rhine, and all of these"" rivers carry an immense traffic. Fourfifths of the river trade gi Holland is carried on the Rhine and the Waal. The Scheldt has its estuary mainly in Holland and carries ocean vessels to Antwerp. his work. And although he might not have admtted it were he charged with it, I knew he was afflicted with a disorder of the digestive apparatus that always accompanies vegetarianism. He was, in fine, the victim of a prejudice that left him unequal to the work' he was compelled to do, and which he was doing at the expense of his health; happiness and success in the world in which he moved. Upon what grounds does the practice of vegetarianism rest its claims'! The answer Is, on no grounds whatsoever, unless it be those of the man whp has an "idea" that if he looks over his left shoulder at the moon, or sees a black cat on the thirteenth day of the-month, he is dead sum to have bad luck. And yet it is only when It is ridden to death as a hobby that vegetarianism can be charged with inanity. When it is practiced occasionally and for a limited time, and at irregular intervals, it becomes the useful servant of scientific intelligence. There is a "soul of truth," in vegetarianism, as there also may "'be," so far as you or I know to the contrary, in the belief that if you see a 1 "black/tabby on Friday the thirteenth, you will lose- regularly at poker for some considerable time thereafter.

Many of th«- canals are used constantly as substt tutes for public highways, and injthg winter their frozen, surfaces offefconi venlent roads for the skaters wha throng them on thelrway to and from market and about their various occn< patlons. So complete is the canal system that by means of it a resident of Rotterdam could breakfast at Delft or The Hague, dine at Leyden and sup at Amsterdam, or return to hla home before nightfall. Since not only the surface but the beds of many ol Holland's canals are above the level ol land, the drainage is of the greatest Importance. This is effected by means of pumps worked by the windmills that are such a characteristic feature of the Dutch landscape. The banks of the canals are maintained by the families that live along them, each being assigned a portion to keep in repair. Emory R. Johnson, professor of transportation and commerce in the University of Pennsylvania, who recently made a study of European waterways, as the special representative of the National River and Harbor conegress, calls attention to the way In which Germany, France, Holland and! Belgium have co-operated in estatn lishing standard dimensions for thetr! canals and barges, and connecting their systems. In this manner th.e\ through shipment of international traffic has been facilitated. "Another feature"~""of" the""waterway policy- ofl - these European countries," he sayn* is that care is taken to provide waterways with adequate terminal and! harbor facilities, and to make sueni physical connections between railroads and waterways at all inland! harbors as to guarantee the easy and! economical transfer of traffic froms cars to boats and water to rails. It is realized that terminal facilities andl rail-connections are as essential a part of the projects for making waterways useful as are reliable channels of adequate width and depth. The Rhlnei river,.for Instance, has 62 harbors equipped as fully as commercial needs require, with storage and transfer facilities. At -13 of,.these terminals thes direct 1 transfer of goods from trains toboat's and river to rail is possible. Many of the harbors include larga basins, some of which are used for the transfer and storage of commodtties, while others are constructed to enable big industrial plants to locate* on water frontage.

6 ii-'i. Hovrard Jeffries, banker's son, under xne evil influence of Robert Underwood, a fellow-student at _Xale, leads a llfo of dissipation, marries the daughter of a eambler who died In prison, and is. disowned by his father. He tries to get work find falls. A former college chum makes a business proposition to Howard.which requires $2,(X;0 cash.^and Howard is broke. -Robert Underwood, who has been repulsed by Howard's wife, Annie, in his college days, and had once been engaged to Alicia, Howard's stepmother, - has apartments at the Astruria. Howard decides to ask Underwood for the $2,000 he reeds. Underwood, taking advantage of his intimacy with Mrs. Jeffries, Sr., becomes a sort o social highwayman. Discovering his true character she denies him the houso. Alicia receives a note from Underwood, threatening suicide. Art dealers for whom ho has been acting as commissioner, demand an accounting. He cannot make good. Howard Jeffries calls in an intoxicated condition. He asks Underwood for $2,000 and is told by tho latter that he Is in debt up to his eyes. Howard drinks himself Into a maudlin condition, and goes to sleep on a divan. A caller is announced and Underwood^ draws a screon around the drunken Bleeper. Alicia enters. She demands a cromiss from him that he will not take his life, pointing- to the disgrace that "would attach to herself. Underwood refuses to promise unless she will renew her patronage. This sho refuses to do. Underwood kills himself. The report of the pistol awakens Howard. He stumbles over the dead body of Underwood. Realising his predicament ho attempts to flea and is met by Underwood's valet. CHAPTER VIII Continued. Howard waa at no time an athlete, Bnd now, contrasted with the burly policeman, a colossus In strength, he eeemed like a puny boy., His cringing, frightened attitude, as he looked up in the captain's bulldog face, was pathetic. The crowd of bystanders could hardly contain their eagerness to take in every detail of the dramatic situationc The prisoner was soberj}y--thli"time, thoroughly alarnyed.,at^do~~you want me for?" he cried. "I haven't done anything. The man's dead, but I didn't kill him." "Shut your mouth!" growled the captain. i Dragging Howard after him, he made his -way to the elevator.--throwing his prisoner^into'the cage, he turned.jto--give" orders to his subord- - Snate. "Maloney, you come with me and Ibring Officer Delaney." Addressing the other men, he said: "You other fellers look after things down here. Don't let any of these people come upstairs." Then, turning to the elevator boy, he gave the command: "Up with her." Tho elevator, with its passengers, shot upward, stopped with a Jerk at the fourteenth floor, and the captain, ence more laying a' brutal hand on Howard, pushed him out Into the corjidor. ; If it could be said- of Capt. Clinton that he had.any system at all, It was to be as brutal as possible with everybody unlucky enough to fall into his hands. Instead of regarding his pris oners as innocent until found guilty,.as they are justly entitled to be regarded under the law, he took the directly opposite stand. He considered all his prisoners as guilty as hell until (they had succeeded In proving them Iselves Innocent. Even then he had!hls doubts. When a jury brought in ia verdict of acquittal, he shook his (head and growled. He had the great- «st contempt for a jury that would ac- Kiuit and the warmest regard for a Jury [which convicted. He bullied and malitreated his prisoners "because he firm- 'ly believed in undermining their.moral and physical resistance. When by depriving them of sleep and food, by (choking them, clubbing them and brightening' them he had reduced (them to a state of nervous terror, to,the border of physical collapse, he tknew by experience that they would no longer be in condition to withstand his merciless cross-examinatiops. Demoralized, unstrung, they would blurt,out the truth and so convict themteelves. The ends of Justice w.ould thus Ibe served. I Capt Clinton prided himself on the Jthorough manner in which he conducted these examinations of persons un- Ider arrest It was a laborious ordeal, imit always succesful. He owed~hls.ipresent position on the' force to the jskillwith which he browbeat his prisoners Into ^'confessions." With his ["third degree". seances he arrived at results" better and more quickly than In any other way. All his convictions ihad been secured by them. The press and meddling busybodies called his system barbarous, a revival of the old time torture chamber.- -What- did- he care what the people said as long as he convicted his'man? Wasn't that what he was paid for? He was there to find the murderer;"'an~d""he""was go- Ing to-do It. He pushed his way Into the apartment, followed closely by Maloney and ithe other policemen, "who dragged 'along the unhappy-howard. The dead man still lay -where-he had fallen..capt Clinton-stooped down, but made ino attempt to touch the_ corpse, merejly satisfying himself that Underwood was dead. Then, after a casual survey.of the room, he said to his Bergeant: j "We won't touch a thing, Maloney, itill the coroner arrives. He'll be here '_ minute, and he'll give (he ardor N,ARTHUR HORNBLOW i MXUSTBATlONS COPYWCHT, Bf a.wl;wu.intfhaf1 i.oonmmg ' The Persistence of His Stare Made Howard Squirm. for the undertaker. You can call up headquarters so the newspaper boys' get the story."... - While.the sergeant'went to the telephone to.carry out these orders, Capt Clinton turned to look at Howard, who had.collapsed, white and trembling, into a chair. "What do you want with me?" cried Howard appeallngly. '':i assure you I had nothing to do with this. My wife's expecting me home. Can't I go?" "Shut up!" thundered the captain. His arms folded, his eyes sternly fixed upon him, Capt Clinton stood confronting the unfortunate youth, staring at him without saying a word. The persistence of his stare made Howard squirm. It was decidedly unpleasant He did not mind the detention so much as this man's overbearing, bullying manner. He knew he was Innocent,.therefore he had nothing "to tear.-'but why was this police captain staring at him so? Whichever way he sat, whichever way his eyes turned, he saw this "bulldog-faced policeman staring silently at him. Unknown to him, Capt. Clinton had 1 already begun the dreaded police ordeal known as the "third degree."' CHAPTER IX. Fifteen minutes passed without a word being spoken. There was deep silence In the room. It was so quiet that once could have heard a pin drop. Had a" disinterested spectator been there to witness it, he 1 would have been at once impressed by the dramatic tableau presented the dead man on the floor, his white shirt front spattered with blood, the cringing, frightened boy crouching In the chair, the towering figure of the police captain.sitting sternly eyeing his hapless prisoner, and at the far end of the room Detective Sergeant Maloney busy sending hurried messages through the telephone. "What did you do it for?" thundered the captain suddenly. Howard's tongue clove to his palate. He could scarcely articulate. He was Innocent, of course, but there was something In this man's manner which made him fear that he might after all, have had something to do with the tragedy. Tet he was positive that he was-asleep on the bed all the time. The question is, would anybody believe him? He shook his head pathetically. "I didn't do it Really, I didn't" "Shut your mouth! You're lying, and you know you're lying. Wait till the coroner comes. We'll fix you." Again there was silence, and now began a long, tedious wait, both men retaining the same positions, the captain watching his prisoner as a cat- ^watches-a-mouse. - Howard's mental anguish was almost unendurable". He "thought "of his poor^wife who must be waiting up for him" airthis "trinet^wonde'rlrig^featead become of him. She would Imagine the worst, and there waa no telling what she might do.-- If_only he could get word to her. Perhaps she would be able to explain things. Then he thought of his father. They had quar-" reled, it was true, but after all It was his own flesh and blood. _At. such a critical situation as this, one fprgets. His father could 1 hardly refuse to come to. his assistance. He must get a lawyfer, too, to protect his Interests. This police captain had no right to detain. Um like this. Ha must get word to _Annle without delay. Summoning "up all his courage, he said boldly: "You are detaining me here without warrant In law. I know--my rights. I am the son of one of the most Influential men In the city." '*" '" ' "What's your name?" growled" the captain. "Howard Jeffries." "Son of Howard Jeffries, the banker?" Howard nodded, "Yes." The captain turned to hi3 sergeant "Maloney, this feller says he's the son of Howard Jeffries, the banker." Maloney leaned, over and whispered something in the captain's ear. The captain smiled grimly. "So you're a bad character, eh? Father turned you out of doors, eh? Where's that girl you ran away with?" Sharply he added: "You see I know your record." "I've done nothing I'm ashamed of," replied Howard calmly. "I married the-girh She's waiting my return now. Won't you.please let me send her a message?" The captain eyed Howard suspiciously for a moment, then he turned to his sergeant: "Maloney, telephone this man's wife. What's the number?". "Eighty-six Morningside." Maloney again got busy with the telephone and the wearying wait began once more 1.. The clock soon struck two. For a whole hour he had been subjected to this gruelling process, and still the lynx-eyed captain sat there watching his quarry. If Capt Clinton had begun to have any doubts when Howard told him who his father was, Maloney's Information immediately put him at his ease. It was all clear to him now. The y^uth had never been any good. His own father had kicked him out jhe -was in desperate financial straits. He had come to this man's rooms te make a demand for money. Underwood had refused and there was a quarrel, and he shot him. There was probably a dispute over the woman. Ah, yes, he remembered now. This girl he married was formerly a sweetheart of Underwood's. Jealousy was behind It as well. Besides, wasn't he caught red-handed, with blood on his hands, trying to escape from the apartment? Oh, they had him dead to rights, all right Any magistrate would hold him on such evidence "It's the Tombs for him, all-right, all right" muttered the captain to himself; "and mayjj promotion for Suddenly there was a commotion at the door. The coroner entered, followed by the undertaker. The two men-advanced quickly into the room; and took' a look at the body._ After 'making a hasty examination, the coroner turned to Capt Clinton. "WeTIT captain, "I guess he's" dead, all right" "Yes, and we've got our man, too." The coroner turned to look at the prisoner. "Caught him red-handed, oh? Who 'is he? 1 '"..".', Howard was about to blurt out a reply,.when tho captain thundered' - "Silencel" _r.to the coroner, the captain ex* plained: 1 "He's the scapegrace _jjon of "Howard Jeferles, the banker. No good-^ bad egg. His lather turned bin out of doors. There Is no question about his guilt Look at his hands.. We caught him trying to get away." ' The coroner rose. He believed In doing things promptly. "I congratulate,you, captain. Quick work like this ought to do your reputation good. The community owes a debt to the officers of the law If they succeed In apprehending criminals quickly. You've been getting some pretty hard knocks lately, but I guess you know your business."

Let justice take its course." Addressing the undertaker, he said: "You can remove the body." The men set about the work Immediately. Carrying the corpse into the-inner room, they commenced the work of laying ft, out "I suppose," Baid the coroner, "that you'll take your prisoner immediately to the station, house, and before tho magistrate to-morrow morning.?."- "Not just yet" grinned_ he-eaptalfip "I wantj.o-put-arrew questions to him -firsc ' The coroner smiled.

Turning to go, tho coroner said: "Well, good-night captain." "Good-night, Mr. Coroner." Howard listened to all this like ono transfixed. They seemed to be talk- Ing about him. They, were discussing some frightful ordeal of which he wag to be a victim. What was this 'third degree' they were talking about? Now he remembered. He had heard of innocent men being bullied, maltreated, deprived of food and sleep for days, i in order to force them to tell what j the police were anxious to find out. He had heard of secret assaults, of I midnight clubbings, of prisoners being! choked and brutally kicked by a gang of ruffianly policemen, in order to force them into some damaging admission. A chill ran down his spino as he realized his utter helplessness. If he could only get word to a lawyer. Just as the coroner was disappearing through the door, he darted forward and' laid a hand on his arm. "Mr. Coroner, won't you listen, to me?" he exclaimed. The coroner startled, drew back. "I cannot interfere," he said coldly. "Mr. Underwood was a friend ot mine," explained Howard. "I cama here to borrow money. I fell asleep on that sofa. When I woke up ha was d-ead. I was frightened. I tried to get away. That's the truth, so help me God!" The coroner looked at him sternly and made no reply. No one could ever "reproach him with sympathizing with criminals. Waving his hand at Capt Clinton, he said: "Good-night captain." "Good-night Mr. Coroner." The door slammed and -Capt. Clinton, with a twist of his powerful arm, yanked his prisoner back into hia seat. Howard protested. "You've got no right to treat me like this.

Smart Set -., GOD'S PHY FOR THE HEATHEN Sunday School Lesion for April 30, Specially Arranged for This Panor LESSON TEXT-Jonah 3:1-4:11. Memory Verse 11. GOLDEN TEXT "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations." Matt. 28:19. TIME-Jeroboam II, king of Israel, In whoso time Jonah prophesied, reigned (Beecher) B. C , (Hastings) B. C Amos and Hosea were.jcontemporary prophets, - - " - -PLACE Gath-hepher, north of Nazareth In Galilee, the Mediterranean Sea, ijoppa, and Nineveh. KINGS Jeroboam II attained suzerainty over all the peoples from the Mediterranean 1 to tho Euphrates. "The,wrlter of the book of Jonah has presented accurately the values of the historical situation. It was tho unknown diasters in Assyria, just after Ramman-nlrari had broken the power p? Damascus, that rendered the successes of Jeroboam 'possible." - - " Jonafi" was- unquestionably- a historical-personage. He lived in the reign of Jeroboam II., king of Israel In whose time Amos's work was ac complished. According to 2 Kings 14: 25, he prophesied the recovery froir Syria of the lost border possessions o) Israel. He is said to have belongec to Gath-hepher, a town of Zebulon and his grave is still shown in the vicinity of Nazareth. Gath-hephei was about a n hour's walk north o: Nazareth. Jonah was therefore a prophet of Galilee. Jewish legenc said that he was the son of the wido-n of Sarepta, whom Elijah had restored to life; and also that he was the youtt whom Elisha had sent to anoint Jehu king of Israel.; This little biography begins witt the announcement that God asked s man to do something for- him. -It is significant that other Bible wrlters- (Nehemlah, Jeremiah, Zephanlah Haggai, Micah)" begin the their lives at_the-sametoint. Our ac- -quatatance with Paul begins \$th his summons to duty, and the apostles were not known until Christ bade them follow him. Jonah's call wag to go to Nineveh, the greatest and wickedest city in the world, and threaten it with doom from Jehovah. How did' Jonah_answer"hls~misslon- _ary-callt~by running away. He fled from the presence of th_e Jx>rd,~aslf~ God 'ffer"e^:ln.his'inind, only a local divinity, ruling over Israel, but unable to see the fugitive if he fled far enough beyond his territory. Jonah should have asked himself, "If the God of Israel sees what is going on at distant Nineveh, and Is concerned about It, is it to be supposed that his unfaithful - servant will escape his notice, like some defaulting apprentice lad, who hopes to elude his master's notice by running away to sea?" Jonah jumps on board a vessel bound for the most remote place known to the ancient world, Tarsus, that is Tartessus, on the Guadalquivir in Spain. God interfered with Jonah's plans by sending one of those sudden, treacherous storms so frequent on the Mediterranean, a storm so fierce that even the skilful Phoenician sailors were -compelled to throw out their cargo, and were filled with terror. Jonah calls upon the sailors to throw him into the sea to purchase their peace by his sacrifice. That call is the finest thing in the picture. It is the real miracle. It marks the enlargement of the man. But the honest fellows were loath to take him at his word, and the poor rowers piled the long sweeps more earnestly than ever. Even when obliged at last to throw Jonah overboard, they did it with a prayer to Jehovah. And at once the sea was calm. How long was Jonah in the great fish? Three days and three nights, which, according to the Jewish mode of reckoning, might, as In the case ol our Lord's stay In the tomb, have been only one entire day and parts of the day preceding and the day following. It is striking to notice the.change In Jonah as soon as he ceased to run away from his duty and became obedient to God's command. What was the command? The first repeated: "Go to Nineveh, that great city, and proclaim-what I bade you proclaim, the doom of their sins." Then God prepared a gourd. This book is full of this word prepared. We are told that the Lord prepared a great fish, a gourd, a worm, and a sultry east wind. This gourd was most likely the bottle-gourd, often planted to grow over trellls-work. It Is thought by some to have been the palma chrlstl, or castor-oil plant, which still grows to a great size in the Jordan valley. It is so-called because it is a five-leaved plant, one leaf of which outspread waa thought to represent the hand of Christ. Next In the acted parable came a worm, destroy Ing. the gourd, and the sirocco, driving its hot blast down upon the sweltering prophet. Then, by a wonderfully true touch of human aature, Jonah transfers his pity for himself, as an ill-used prophet, to the gourd wiiich likewise had been hard ly treated.

That such was the outside policy, Limantour pointed out, clearly is proven by the concentration of the United States regulars in Texas.

Historic Residence of Great Poet, Is Doomed. Bartholomew Close, Most Interesting Section of Old London; Is to Be Demolished Benjamin Franklin Once Lived There., London. -Bit by bit each year what little is left of old London disappears. Before long a: whole neighborhood known as Bartholomew Close nearly the most interesting relic of OldJ»en^ don, for it includes houses where Milton and Benjamin Franklin lived will have to go. - ' ' The'Smithfield meat market adjoins Bartholomew Close and 'traffic has grown so heavy around, the market of late years that It has been found ne.cessary to construct some new roads there. The best part of-'the old district covers Uje space wanted for the new roads, so sentiment mutst bow before expediency and the Close will be seen no more. A close is literally the precincts of an abbey or a cathedral and this old district is so called because it partly is and once wholly was'the precincts of the Priory Church of St. Bartholomew. At the present time what is known as the Close is just a network of rambling little streets and squares with quaint little courts branching out here and there; the church Itself only occupies one corner of the place. Milton lived for some time in this spot when he was-in. retirement about r6"g0.r."tie~~to""ok"tip his abode--at asmall tavern known as the "Little "Wonder." The bouse Is In a good state of preservation.'and is occupied at present by a plumber, who is very proud of his work-shop and gives all the information he can to visitors. The house where Benjamin Franklin Where Milton Lived. lived is no longer in existence. As the old verger of St. Bartholomew said, "It's been completely metamorphosed into something quite different," Cornparatively_recently.-a lady, chapel was. added to St. Batholomew's and to make rootff for it a famous old fringe factory had to be pulled down; part of the walls of the factory are still to be seen.' In this building was Palmer's printing office where Franklin was employed as a journeyman printer while at the same time he was acting as America's ambassador. Although Londoners will be glad to see the Bartholomew Close go on account of the slums it contains, still they will be sorry to see it demolished ons^ccount of its great antiquity and veneiv '<s associations.

The old man had given his son a very fair education, and had taken him into his shop. The young fellow was over-nice about a great many things, but the father made no comment.. One day an order came in from a customer. "~ ,.^."I wish to goodness," exclaimed the son, "that Gibson would learn to spell." "What's the matter with it?" inquired the father, cheerfully. "Why, 'he spells coffee with a 'k.'" "No does he? I never noticed it." "Of course you never did," said the son, pettishly. "You never notice anything l}ke that." "Perhaps not, my son," replied the old man, gently; "but there Is one thing I do notice, which you will learn -by and by, ^an.djj.hat is that Gibson pays cash." ' ' :. GONE UP.

The One Hundred and Thirty-fifth legislature, which came to an end at 3 o'clock Sarflrday morning, will be a notable one to the legislative history of New Jersey, and it will he chiefly notable for what it accomplished.

"Add to this list the regulation of cold storage, the substitution of indeterminate for determinate sentences for criminal offenses, the rectification of the abuses in connection with-false weights and measures and the administration reform of the school system, and it must be admitted these constitute one of the most remarkable records of legislation, I venture to think, " that has ever distinguished a single legislative session in this country." It looked at one time as though the governor was going to fail to have passed the bill providing for a commission form of government, upon which he had placed his se.'il of approval and which was bitterly opposed. by the few old line bosses of both parties who had the temerity to endeavor to thwart the governor's purposes even after the bitter and humiliating defeats they hud suffered to a great extent through his instrumentality. The hill passed the senate with little or no opposition in the closing hours of the session, but when it reached the house it was bitterly assailed, and twice it suffered defeat. But the friends of the measure, encouraged by the governor, renewed the fight a third time and were successful in getting the measure passed. This was not accomplished, however, until there. had been a conference upon the bill "S" and an agreement was reached upon an important amendment. When the. bill passed the house the opponents of the measure succeeded in having a provision inserted to the effect that when it was submitted to a vote of the people for ratification 40 per cent at least of the vote polled at- Hie- pre- from New England he was a Democrat districts of the Liikewood township:" Fixing the speed anywhere in the and early understood tjhe gigantic task Some idea of the work of the ses-statof reforming the old fashioned Demo- sion and what yet remains for the gov-miles an" hour. ~ ~ for motor vehicles at twenty-five cratic machine of Hudson, which' was eraor to do may be gleaned from tho vious general- election-must-be -east-in" Repealingthe. mininjum tax ratejam "then in the heyday of its power. statement that on Tuesday_thereJiad its favor to make it operative.
